This is a petition for review on certiorari seeking to reverse and set aside the July 28, 2011

Decision1 and the February 3, 2012 Resolution2 of the Court of Appeals (CA), in CA-G.R. CV

84529, which affirmed the June 29, 2004 Decision3 of the Regional Trial Court, Branch 259,
Paranaque City (RTC) in Civil Case No. 96-0206, a case for damages.

The Facts

The subject property is a parcel of land with an area of 572 square meters located in Brgy. Sto.
Domingo, Binan, Laguna. It was registered in the name of Aquilina Martinez (Aquilina) under
Transfer Certificate of Title (TCT) No. T-18729 by the Register of Deeds of Laguna on July 29,

1939.4 redarclaw

ChanRobles Special Lecture Series After the liberation of Manila from the Japanese military occupation in 1945, Aquilina and her
maternal grandmother, Leoncia Almendral (Leoncia), learned that their house on Zabala Street,
Tondo, Manila, was ruined by the war. To rebuild their house, they borrowed money from their
relative, Conrado Almazora (Conrado). Thus, their house was reconstructed. In return, Leoncia
entrusted to Contrado the owner's duplicate copy of TCT No. T-18729 covering the subject
property in Binan, Laguna. Consequently, Conrado and his family remained in the said property.

Following the death of Aquilina on July 19, 1949, the title of the subject property was transferred
to Aurora Morales-Vivar (Aurora), as her sole heir. Accordingly, TCT No. T-35280 was issued in the

name of Aurora5 after TCT No. T-18729 was cancelled. On February 7, 1972, Conrado passed
away.

Sometime in 1994, Aurora learned from Cristina Almazora (Cristina), the widowed spouse of
Conrado, that the title of the subject property had long been transferred in the name of Conrado
and that the subject property had been sold to Fullway Development Corporation (Fullway) by the

heirs of Conrado in consideration of P4,000,000.00.6 redarclaw

Aurora was shocked to learn that the subject property was already transferred to Conrado and sold
for a meager amount. On October 30, 1995, she sent a letter to the heirs of Conrado demanding
the delivery of the payment they received for the sale of the subject property; but it was
unheeded.

On May 9, 1996, Aurora together with her husband, Arturo, filed a complaint for damages7 against
Cristina and the other heirs of Conrado (respondents) before the RTC. They contended that the
owner's duplicate copy of TCT No. T-18729 was only given to Conrado for safekeeping. The
complaint, however, admitted that the family of Conrado had been staying on, and using, the

subject property since 1912 with the permission and generosity of Aquilina and Leoncia.8 redarclaw

Aurora asserted that, through the years, she repeatedly asked Conrado to return the owner's copy
of the title but the latter procrastinated, giving all kinds of excuses, until he died in 1972; that
thereafter, Aurora asked Cristina for the copy of the title but the latter also ignored her request;
that the subsequent sale of the subject property to Fullway was without Aurora's authorization,
and, thus, the payment received by respondents for the sale of the subject property should be

turned over to her; and that she prayed for moral and exemplary damages.9 redarclaw

On June 24, 1996, respondents filed their answer with compulsory counterclaim. They countered
that the subject property was properly transferred to Conrado under TCT No. 35282, and,
thereafter, in the names of the heirs of Conrado under TCT No. T-114352. Respondents averred
that the imputation of fraud on the part of Conrado in the registration of the subject property was
baseless and this assertion of fraud was not transmissible from Conrado to his heirs, who merely

acquired the property through succession.10 redarclaw

Respondents raised some special and affirmatives defenses, among others, that the complaint
stated no cause of action and was barred by prescription. A preliminary hearing for the said

defenses was set by the RTC.11 In the Order,12 dated May 27, 1999, the RTC ruled that the
complaint stated a cause of action.

Respondents filed a petition for certiorari13 to assail the said interlocutory order of the RTC before

the CA. In its Decision,14 dated February 24, 1999, the CA denied the same and held that the
complaint stated a cause of action, which was an action for damages arising from fraud committed
by Conrado, as trustee, against Aurora, as cestui que trust. The CA further held that the
complaint, on its face, did not show that the action had prescribed.

Meanwhile, the RTC continued the proceedings and set the case for trial on the merits. After the
parties adduced their respective pieces of evidence, the RTC required them to submit their

memoranda. Only respondents filed a memorandum.15 redarclaw

The RTC Ruling

In its Decision, dated June 29, 2004, the RTC dismissed the complaint. The trial court held that,
after a thorough evaluation of the records, Aurora miserably failed to prove her right to the subject
property. It explained that even if Aurora had a claim on the subject property, she was guilty of
laches. For many years, Aurora slept on her right over the questioned property and failed to
exhaust all means, legal or administrative, to retrieve what was rightfully hers at the earliest
possible time.

The RTC determined that Conrado was able to transfer the title of the subject property in his name
on June 17, 1965 by virtue of a document denominated as "Adjudication and Absolute Sale of a

Parcel of Registered Land,"16 dated January 9, 1949, signed by Aurora and her husband. The
signatures of Aurora and her husband, affixed on the deed of sale, were not properly controverted
by her. The trial court found that her allegations of repeated pleas to Conrado to return the copy of
the title deserved scant consideration. It concluded that Aurora was not entitled to damages
because there were no clear and cogent grounds to award the same. The decretal portion of the
decision reads: LawlibraryofCRAlaw

ChanRoblesVirtualawlibrary

WHEREFORE, premises considered, plaintiffs having failed to prove its case for
damages, the same is hereby ordered DISMISSED for lack of merit.

SO ORDERED.17

Aggrieved, Aurora appealed to the CA. On June 4, 2009, the children of Aurora, namely, Consuelo
V. Pangasinan, Lucio M. Vivar and Annabella V. Borromeo (petitioners), filed a motion for

substitution of party18 after her death on March 26, 2008. In its Resolution,19 dated July 15,
2010, the CA granted the motion.

The CA Ruling

In the assailed Decision, dated July 28, 2011, the CA denied the appeal of petitioners. It held that
it took Aurora more than 50 years to act on Conrado's withholding of the title covering the subject
property. As early as 1945, the title was already in the possession of Conrado. The CA ruled that
petitioners were barred by laches as Aurora should have been impervious in asserting her
ownership and made judicial demands to return the title and the property.

The appellate court added that even on the aspect of prescription of actions, the case would not
prosper either. It explained that the prescriptive period to recover property obtained through fraud
or mistake giving rise to an implied trust under Article 1456 of the Civil Code was 10 years,
pursuant to Article 1144. This 10-year prescriptive period began from the time the land was
registered on June 17, 1965. Accordingly, Aurora had only until June 17, 1975 within which to file
her action. Evidently, the suit was commenced only on May 12, 1996, beyond its prescription
period. The dispositive portion of the decision states: LawlibraryofCRAlaw
